SUMMARY OF EPISODE
Nai and Cam have a conversation about the things that they as FCA co-founders have been learning and implementing, as they learn alongside members in the current intake of the Feminist Coach Theory Certification Training. One of the things that Desiree Adaway, a teacher and Advisory Board Member in the Feminist Coach Academy, has said many times is the importance of learning publicly.
Nai and Cam share what they’re learning and the feedback they’re getting and applying on the following topics:
- How dominant the English language is in the training and in general
- How gender neutral language doesn’t always translate into other languages and contexts
- The need for captions on videos and transcripts of audios to be more inclusive and not able-ist
- The way true inclusivity is actually a collaborative experience with your community
- How to be inclusive to folks whose identities we don’t share
- Ways to be more inclusive to folks in any group who don’t share the dominant identity so they don’t get lost in the mix
- How, as course creators, it’s easy to get disconnected from the experience of the learner because the focus becomes about organising files and coordinating teachers and facilitating the technology
- Ways Nai and Cam are connecting back into what might not be clear to members as they go through the coursework
- The difference between genuine feedback for improving a training and ‘feedback forms’ that are really for seeking testimonials
- The benefits Nai and Cam are finding from applying what they’re learning from the student surveys
- Why they’re shifting from Feminist CEO Calls to Feminist Coworking Calls
- Ensuring multiple perspectives are shared on classes led by white folks
- The importance of self-care and rest in working on this big mission!
